When I was a Christian, several people told me that god could not see sin because he could not be in its presence. Because I was trying to make sense of religion, their statements used to drive me whacky.
One pastor told me that it became dark when Jesus died so that god wouldn't see him take on the literal sins of human beings. I guess that means that I can have orgies and still make it to heaven if I turn off the lights,
At a church party for my nephew, the magician(who made certain to tell us he was an illusionists because magic is a sin) told the kids that once you are a Christian, god can literally not see your sins.
I have spoken to Christians online who assured me that I must have heard incorrectly because no one believes that an all seeing god has such a limit. No matter what they think, I have had Christians tell me that god does not have the ability to be everywhere or see everything because he can't be in the presence of sin. Have any of you heard this? If you are a Christian, do you believe that your god has a limit?
